A while ago, we wrote about new generation of Commodore called Commodore PC64. Well, it seems that there's will be a new and improved model in the future called Commodore C64x Extreme.

Just like the previous model, Commodore PC64, this one will also have that retro look from the 80's, but it will come with enhanced hardware. A 2.2 GHz Intel Core i7 that can be boosted to 3.3 GHz is used to power up this computer, but Commodore C64x Extreme also comes with 8GB of DDR3 RAM, Intel HD integrated graphics, and 2TB HDD. In addition, there are two USB 3.0 ports, three USB 2.0 ports, eSATA connection, HDMI, 3.5mm S/PDIF, VGA, and DVI port. As for connectivity, there's a Bluetooth, 802.11 b/g/n WiFi, an Ethernet port. Regarding the OS, Commodore C64x Extreme will use Linux Mint 11, but it will fully support Windows in the future.

Commodore C64x Extreme combines the retro look of a Commodore and the latest hardware into a single device, but such combination costs $1,500.
